According to late Paris paper, the new iron
curtain of the Theatre Franchise is a gigantic
affair It neither rolls up folds together,
but ascends in a solid sheet into the upper re-
gions. which have had to be heightened to make
room for it. The ascent occupies minute and
a quarter. 1t appears. too, that the new drop
scene, with its colonnade and busts, is not an
ordinary rolling canvass. but is glued to the iron
curtain. The other structural alterations at
the Theatre franchise have involved sacrifice
of seating space to the value of over $75 night.
AS tne theatre is open every night IN the year.

loss involved in these changes may be reckoned
at something like $25 900.

Harvest-Home Hymn.

Written by request for Harvest. Home service in
Chicago).
Glad praise we bring, dear Saviour,
And harvest-offerings meet.
For Thou hast crowned the fruitful years
With benedictions sweet.
We SOW in spring time, trusting
For sheaves in autumn's field;
But though we plant, it's Thou must give
The bounteous harvest-yield.
Let forests paint their vesture
In richest rel and gold
And all earth celebrate anew
Thy gifts of love untold!
Let anthems swell thanksgivings,
Let joyful psalms arise.
Let hearts and homes breathe hymns and sopgs,
To echo in theskies.
We bring these fruits and flowers,
And ask that they may be
An earnest, of the service, Lord.
These hearts wo uld render Thee.
And if at lost the welcome
To us shall be "Well DONE"
Well sing the new glad harvest-song,
Where harvests blend In one.

A Forsaken Garden.

Not flower to be pressed of the foot that falls not
As the heart of dead the seed lots are dry;
From the thickest of thorns whence the nightingale
calls not.
Could she call. there were never rose to reply.
Over the meadows that blossom and wither
Rings but the note of seabirdss song;
Only the and the rain come hither
All year long.
The sun burns sore. and the rain dishevels
One gaunt bleak blossom of scentless breath;
Only the wind here hovers and revels
In around where life seems barren rs death.
Here there laughing of old, there weeping,
HAPPY, of lovers none ever will know.
Whose eyes went seward a hundred sleeping
Years ago.

The Grapes of September.

Where sings Campanias wave her song of love
Hard by Vesuvius who far above,
Frowns Ger the candid laughter-merry spray
That curls and leaps in limpid, lambert play
Round vne-draped cliffs where orange boughs forth

Fragrant geld globes to WOO the cooling dove
Through all the dalance of Southern day;
so hang these grapes along the arbor's length,
Weighted with nectar that de ad August dropped
Within their chaces, yet lis strength
Diminished. b is amber locks cropped
Purple, wine sparkling, holding fast that light
Whereof tho summer fruits stayed not the fight.

Ghosts.

When June made all the blossoms glad,
Knowing in truth tho winter dead,
My heart, too. bloomed as any rose
Your love the sunlight on it shed.
Now where the winters soughing winds
Like ghosts of Summers dead delights
Sound down the dales. my heart responds;
Echoes their dreariest means O. nights.
Love died with summer. and his voice
With other wraiths sobs thro' the hours;
It is not winds hear ut times,
But signing ghosts of loves and flowers.

A Riot at Camp.Meeting.

The Hampton Guardian give an
account of riot at the Boggy Gut Camp
Ground in Hampton County. Last Sun.
day whiskey was flowing freely and the
meeting ended in a general row. The
Guardian gives this account of the
bloody affair:
Pistols were drawn, razors fourished
and the slaughter began. The pistols
cracked rapidly, the razors made huge
gashes, pine poles were used as clubs and
blood flowed in streams. The firing and
shouts could be heard for miles and it
seemed in the distance as if a battle was
raging. When the pistols had been
exhausted of ammunition and the thirst
for blood had been satiated, sickening
sight presented itself. Jacob Jackson
was lying dead on the ground with a pis-
tol ball in his brain. John Brown, alias
Johnston, was moaning with terrible
wound in his abdomen (since reported
dead Joe Butler, Howard Martin and
John Martin, who are probably fatally
wounded, we're carried to their homes
One Clarkey was fearfully beaten, and
two unknown negroes from Georgia were
seriously hurt. 1t is impossible to get
the names of all the negroes engaged ia
the bloody ARRAY, as some of them have
fled, and there are doubtless others
wounded who are concealing themselves.
Jacob Jackson was buried at Good
Will Church on Monday. Hundreds Of
negroes attended his funeral. He was a
desperate character.
It is said that this same gang created
row last year at the same place. 1t is
also reported that whiskey was sold on
the grounds by other negroes, and that
this was the cause of the riot last Sun.

Lightning and Railway Signals.


= The effect of lightning on electrical ap-
paratus of all sorts is n subject on which
accurate data seem rather scarce, and its
effect on railroad signals especially is O
point on which more light is needed. A
cardinal principle in signals which are in
any degree automatic is that they shall
show danger in the event of any derange-
ment, and numberless ingenious devices
have been invented to provide against the
possibility Of O. signal standing at safety
when it has not been intelligently put in
that position; but lightning is such O.
lawless element and may influence elec-
trical apparatus in so many different ways
that the counteracting Of the harm it may
do is no easy task. Itmay make ground
connection, and thus allow circuit to
appear all right when it is not, being
closed at one end and open without bat
terry ut the other. 1t may melt fixtures
so as to permanently hold q signal in the
position it is in at the moment; and again
it may charge u wire with a current that
will actuate the electromagnetic and work
the signals when the signal man has taken
no action whatever.
While the chances of a signal being
held any length Of time in the safety posi-
,tion from the effects of lightning alone
arc very small, and while it is probable
that nearly or quite all danger in this re-
spect can be guarded against by caution
ary instructions to the attendants, it is
nevertheless well to make note of ull Pc
culiarities noticed, that experience may
be comparcd.-Railroad Gazette.

Guilty Men in Solitude.

When you consider the constitution of
the mind you see how horribly forceful it
is. Well, the wilderness, the great out
stretching, uninhabitcd woods would be
solitary cell to one of these guilty men,
more dreadful because of its size; for when
the man is in his little cell he has the COM
panionship of the walls at least of tho
grated door, of the chair on which he sits,
and beyond him but few feet he knows
there are scores of fellow beings. But
place him where he knows there is not
human being within fifty miles, not O
thing that man has made-that if he
should try to run from his remorse he
could not succeed-and then let the sun
20 down, the shadows deepen and dark
ness shroud the woods. Let it be hot
night, when the winds are too tired to
move, and all animals lie still, and not o
sound be floating in the air. Yes, put q
guilty man in the woods or such night
and leave him there. That's enough. God
will do the rest. What would be the effect?
I think he would repent. He would, or 60
